Tip: Monk fruit is a natural sweetener derived from a small round fruit in the gourd family and is 150-200 times sweeter than sugar. It is often blended with erythritol (a zero-calorie natural sugar alcohol) to resemble table sugar. It does not spike blood sugar levels and is suitable for diabetics or reduced sugar diets.

Some brands have better texture than others, the fine powdered monk fruit brand used in this recipe is Lakanto and can be found in grocery stores, health food stores or online.
